Partly eaten sacrifice

Bcode removed the rounding part: "Partially-eaten corpses normally have their value decreased by roughly the percentage that's been eaten. But NetHack rounds down, often to zero."

Why is that considered incorrect information? In my own gaming experience, I've never been able to sacrifice partly eaten corpses. --Tjr (talk) 15:25, 1 June 2013 (UTC)

Chances of receiving an artifact

The breakdown for your current chance to receive an artifact is a little unclear. The "Number of existing artifacts" suggests that destroying some of the artifacts in your game would increase the chances of receiving new ones, but people in #nethack tell me this is not the case. Also, artifact wishing considers how many artifacts have been generated so far, not the number currently existing, so I don't see why sacrifice gifts would either — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.22.232.43 (talk • contribs) 21:17, 4 August 2013

True. Additionally, your crowning spellbook increments the gift counter, even though it is not an artifact. Your quest artifact counts as artifact created as soon as you visit the quest home level, but the bell, book, candelabrum do not count. --Tjr (talk) 06:13, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
